EMPLOYER REPORTS


Payroll Advice#
The Payroll Advice is sent to the designated Payroll Officer each time an employee begins salary packaging or whenever there is a change to a package that alters the employees future salary deductions. This advice will specify the amount to be deducted pre-tax from the employees salary and specify the FBT liability to be deducted. Where an employee is salary packaging a novated lease using RCM, the advice will also break the amounts down into Pre-Tax and Post Tax.

ITC Reports#
The Income Tax Credit Report is issued monthly and details the GST tax credits that the employer is eligible to claim for any salary packaged benefits paid in the previous month. Where employees are using RCM to reduce the FBT liability the GST on RCM amount that is not claimable by the employer is also specified.

FBT Reports#
The Fringe Benefit Tax Report is issued annually at the end of the FBT year. It provides a complete report of all the packaged benefits that have FBT implications and provides the reportable fringe benefits amounts, FBT liabilities etc, for each employee.

Bank Reconciliation#
A complete bank reconciliation is provided as needed to report the current balance in the employer account, the sub-balance of each individual employee and reconcile all the transactions for the period.



EMPLOYEE REPORTS

Benefit Confirmation Report
When you initially establish your salary package (and whenever it is amended) you will receive this report confirming the benefit items to be packaged, the amounts of each item and the date, frequency and duration of each payment.

Salary Packaging Welcome Kit
The Welcome Kit is sent to you along with the Benefit Confirmation Report and details the processes and procedures that may be needed throughout various stages of your package. The kit includes all forms necessary to amend and administer your package. The covering letter provided with the kit will also include a user name and password to access your data and reports live, online.

Payroll Advice
The Payroll Advice is provided to you when your salary package begins and whenever there is a change to the values of any items in your package. The advice will detail the future salary deductions and detail the amount to be deducted pre-tax from
your salary and specify the FBT liability to be deducted. Where an you are salary packaging a novated lease using the Recipient Contribution Method, the advice will also break the amounts down into Pre-Tax and Post Tax.

Transaction Statement - All Salary Packaged Items*
This statement details all transactions that have been paid from your package. It also specifies the opening balance of available funds for the period, along with a running balance and closing balance. In addition at the end of the report all items that have been received for reimbursement but are not yet paid are listed for your convenience.

Transaction Statement - Fuel & Maintenance Report (Maintained Novated Lease Vehicles Only)*
This is a fuel card and motor vehicle maintenance statement. All fuel card purchases that have been paid from your account during the period are listed along with the date, location, type of fuel and GST. In addition any maintenance costs (servicing and tyres) processed on your card will also be reported.

Novated Lease Budget VS Actual Report#
This innovative report allows you to keep track of how your maintained novated lease is performing in comparison to your original budget. The reports details the original monthly novated lease budget including fuel, maintenance, tyres, registration, insurance, lease payments, with a second column displaying the budgeted total amount to date and a third column displays the actual total amounts packaged for the vehicle up until the end of the previous month. The final column displays any variance between the budgeted amount to date and the actual paid expenses to date. This report is extremely beneficial in that it allows you to keep an eye on your novated lease costs throughout your lease, rather than simply being made aware of any variances at the end of lease, as is common with many other providers (that could be up to 5 years later).

* These reports are currently through our Online Reporting Portal.
# These reports will be available soon through our Online Reporting Portal.
